Always a feeling of accomplishment when it fires up.
Looks brilliant.
Motivated me to go to the garage and fill a jar with fuel and run a line to the carbs and fire the Lc2 up for the first time.

The bubblewrap crash protection is a bit severe though?

The bubblewrap crash protection is a bit severe though? And there's nothing worse for putting permanent marks on new paint.

had a little problem, whent out in the garage the day after first starting it. Turnes out the sprocket seal wasnt seated in case. Had me worried that it was blown off, have reseated it and started it up again today and its stayed in so all ok and must have been my fault not seating it correctly when the cases were joined.
